Gone - bye bye.
I just had to share my good fortune. Have you ever happened up on one of those deals on something that you don't really need, but you can't pass up the deal. Well I just came upon a deal like that myself. I was talking to a guy over on another forum about the aluminum servo arm on his axial. He was a nice guy and we were talking about our RC's. He happened to mention that he was cleaning out the garage and making space, and he just happened to have a crawler that wasn't getting used. He said he had a bunch of stuff, and if I wanted to buy it cheap I could have the whole mess.
Here's the best part though. He didn't have any feedback, and I wasn't just going to send someone I don't know some money and hope an RC shows up. I sent him my feedback link on here and on ebay. I told him that if he could find a way to be fair but not be stupid I would be interested. He sent me a message that I had good feedback and he trusted me, and I called and talked to him on the phone. Now for the good part: He didn't bicker or moan, he just said that he understood how I didn't want to get ripped of, and he would send me the stuff and THEN I could send the payment. So It's on the way, and I got one hell of a deal.
Axial AX-10 kit, assembled and RTR (only been used a few times because there's almost no rash)
1 Integy 55 turn motor installed, 1 BNIP
1 Dynamite Tazer ESC installed, and 1 BNIP
at least 4 battery packs
a new 27 turn motor that he had laying around (good excuse to build a scaler)
2 HiTec servos
several aluminum servo arms
How much you ask, $120 and the shipping, $150 all together. Now you see why I wouldn't send the money first. It really sounds too good to be true. I kinda wish I wouldn't have ordered a new axial kit last week, but oh well. It looks great in the pictures, but even if it's got issues, a new set of axial axles costs $120 with shipping, so I figure it's going to be hard for me to come out bad. Even if the stuff doesn't show up, I'm not out anything.
After talking to the guy, he's got a lot of toys. He has SEVERAL rather nice large scale boats, and a full size baja boat that costs more than a lot of peoples houses. It's usually people like that who buy toys they don't need and then just about give them away, so I'm hoping everything turns out for the best.
